Like many, you are looking to earn money online either to supplement your income or you are like me and want to eventually fire your boss. Well first off, go YOU! You are heading in the right direction. The internet is such an amazing place. It has opened up so many doors for so many people and there are thousands of possibilities. However, within all of those possibilities and behind some of those doors there are scams. Too many scams and I’m here to show you safe ways to make money online.

First off I’ll tell you I’m a skeptic by nature. You’ve heard the saying, if it sounds too good to be true it is, and I truly believe that. To earn money online, it takes work and depending on the amount of money you want to make it will take time. You will not see $25,000 in your first month and if someone is promising you that it’s a scam. Rest assured though, with dedication and work you CAN legitimately earn money online. There are ways to make a little quick cash now or you can make the long term investment and make a lot of it once you get the ball rolling. The choice is up to you and how much time and effort you are willing to put into it.

You have to sit down and think about what you are trying to accomplish. I think this is such a huge step that most people don’t think about that I believe is crucial. Here are some questions to ask yourself before you start looking how to make money online:

Do I want to do this part time or full time?

Will this be a permanent situation or temporary?

Do I want to work for myself or work for another company?

Am I looking to earn enough to pay some bills or change my life?

Once you have these answered then you can really start to entertain the possibilities that are out there, because honestly those answers will help point you in the right direction. You don’t want to be misled and you don’t want to waste your time going in the wrong direction. I’ve heard too many stories where someone had expectations set in their mind about what they wanted to accomplish online and how much they wanted to make and they ended up going down the wrong path. Take the time to research.

Following are the three easiest way of earning money online and none of them requires you to be a computer expert at all.
